CIBC U.S. Dollar Aventura® Gold Visa
Earn maximum rewards Reach financial goals fasterFor Canadians who spend frequently in U.S. dollars—whether on vacations, business trips, or online purchases—foreign-currency fees can quickly add up. The CIBC U.S. Dollar Aventura® Gold Visa Card* eliminates that worry by allowing you to pay directly in U.S. currency while earning valuable Aventura Points on every dollar spent.
This credit card is built for convenience and flexibility. You can earn 1 Aventura Point per $1 U.S. dollar spent on everyday purchases and redeem those points for travel, merchandise, or even statement credits. With no foreign-exchange conversion fees on U.S. dollar transactions, it’s one of the most practical options for Canadians with cross-border lifestyles.
Beyond rewards, cardholders benefit from travel insurance coverage, Visa Gold protections, and the ability to avoid exchange-rate fluctuations by keeping purchases and payments in U.S. currency. Whether you’re shopping online at American retailers or managing expenses during frequent U.S. visits, this card simplifies your financial life and delivers consistent value.
Your Perfect Companion for Cross-Border Living
If you regularly shop or travel in the United States, using a standard Canadian card means paying conversion fees of 2.5 % or more on every transaction. The CIBC U.S. Dollar Aventura® Gold Visa* Card helps you avoid that expense entirely by keeping your purchases and balance in U.S. dollars.
Cardholders can also manage their accounts seamlessly through CIBC Online Banking, set up U.S. dollar automatic payments, and enjoy flexibility to pay from a CIBC U.S. Dollar Personal Account. Combined with Aventura Points that accumulate on all spending, this card effectively rewards you while saving on unnecessary fees.
Whether booking hotels in Florida, shopping from American websites, or fueling up during U.S. road trips, every transaction earns rewards and provides stability against exchange-rate changes. In short, it’s a smart solution for anyone whose lifestyle bridges both sides of the border.
